초록

빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군은 왼쪽 근위부 빗장밑동맥이나 오른쪽 팔머리동맥에 심한 협착 혹은 폐색으로 인해 반대쪽 척추동맥으로부터 관류압이 감소된 병변쪽 빗장밑동맥으로 혈류가 역으로 유입되는 현상이 나타나게 되고, 그 결과로 척추-뇌바닥혈류부전이나 허혈성 말초동맥질환 증상이 동반되는 경우를 말한다. 빗장밑동맥을 포함한 뇌혈관 협착증에서 신경중재술을 이용한 혈류의 회복 및 방향 교정은 환자의 증상과 예후를 좋게 한다고 알려져 있다. 저자는 오른팔에 비해 왼팔 혈압이 12 mmHg 낮은 환자에서 이중초음파검사를 시행하였고, 왼쪽 척추동맥에서 빗장밑혈류빼앗김증후군의 특징적인 혈류파형이 관찰되어 혈관성형술 및 스텐트 설치술을 통해 성공적으로 치료된 증례를 보고하고자 한다. 6개월 후 추적검사에서 왼쪽 척추동맥의 혈류파형은 정상으로 회복되었고, 양팔의 혈압 차는 5 mmHg로 감소하였다.

Subclavian steal syndrome is a type of obstructive artery disease caused by severe stenosis and occlusion of a left proximal subclavian artery or brachiocephalic trunk. The resulting vertebro-basilar insufficiency symptoms are due to retrograde blood flow from the contralateral vertebral and basilar arteries into the low-pressure ipsilateral upper extremity vessels. For that reason, patients usually experience dizziness or arm ischemic symptoms. Neurointervention is an effective treatment for ischemic stroke, including the subclavian artery stenosis. This paper reports a patient with subclavian steal syndrome who had a vertebral artery Doppler waveform change in duplex sonography and a 12 mmHg difference in interarm systolic blood pressure. A stenotic lesion of the subclavian artery was treated effectively by inserting a precise stent. The follow up examination showed that the vertebral artery Doppler waveform change disappeared and recovered and that the 12 mmHg difference in interarm systolic blood pressure decreased to 5 mmHg after treatment.
